    I am a advanced begginer level back yard mechanic. I changed my inner and outer tired rod ends this weekend. I used mid grade parts because of financial reasons. When I asked the kid at the parts house for which lock tight product I should use he have he gave me the red. So I used red when I installed the inner tie rod to the rack. Now I am very concerned that i am screwed. I am not sure how heat effect the rack. It's a 2002 tacomoa

    Welcome Mike.
    You’ll have better luck if you ask specific questions in the 1st Gen section.
    Hope that gets you an answer.

    Red is just a stronger Loctite. You’ll need an alignment anyway since you have new tie rods, so they’ll be adjusting it.

    Red is “permanent”; it can take some heat to get off depending on how much you used and where you used it.
